Building

Historic or particularly important modern buildings.

Description

Mid to late nineteenth century former barns at Manor Farm. Former utilitarian outbuildings arranged around a courtyard formerly associated with Manor Farm. Constructed of brick with shallow pitched gabled roofs laid in slate. Part of the complex is positioned hard up to the edge of the main road through the village, which makes them visually prominent. The complex is also visible from Peggs Lane. The complex is significant because of its prominent position, but primarily because these building reflect the former agricultural economy of the village and in particular its period of growth and prosperity during the mid to late 19th century. The agricultural buildings are architecturally distinctive with their large blank gabled roof planes and relatively blank elevations. 'Local Building of Note' within the Conservation Area of Buckland (B1).
